RAIDEp BY TIE BEARS.
The Advances OF tho Previous Day
Wiped Out and Losses Recorded,

NEW YORK, Apr. 2l.--To days stock
market presented marked contrast to that
Of yesterday, being especially weak, and the
improvement Of last evening was entirely
wiped out, and in many cases additional
losses recorded The feeling was bullish at
the opening, and not only tho foreigners,
but the room traders were free buyers OF
stock. There was, however, full supply
from the cliques, and when the early de-
mand was satisfied the entire list began to
yield, The market received no support
whatever and the bears made the most OF
the opportunity to raid the market.
The opening was firm to strong, first
prices generally showing advances over
last evenings final figures Of from to
per cent. Under the pressure OF stocks for
sale the market began TO yield Immediately
and slowly sagged Off with no special
movement. After 1 p. M, however, the
downward movement gathered force. In
the last half hour the decline was checked
and the close was firm at fractions better
than the lowest figures.

A Husbands Testimony.

My wife was troubled for years with
blotches, moth patches and pimples on her
face, which nearly annoyed the life out Of
her. She spent many dollars on the
thousand infallible (Y) cures, with nothing
but injurious effects. A lady friend, OF
Syracuse, N. Y, who had had similar ex-
perience and had been cured with Hop
Bitters, induced her to try it. One bottle
has made her face as smooth fair and soft
as chlld's and given her such health that
II seems almost miracle.
